Chapter 6: The chaos within

I couldn't help but smile, I was alive, I looked a Miles, whose lab coat was covered in my blood, as well as his hands. On the floor was a trail of blood leading from the front door to me, and on a tray was the bullet that pierced my shoulder.

"How did you—?" I asked.

Miles smiled, "First I dragged you along to the lab, and then I had to extract the bullet. After that you had to be sewed up, by then you felt numb right?"

I nodded and he continued, "But by the time that was finished…. You stopped breathing. I yelled your name, then yanked two power cords from my computer and gave you a shock."

I smiled and said, "Thank you."

I went to move to my shirt that was lying on the floor and picked it up, not only did I hurt myself while bending down; my shirt was covered in blood.

"Yeah, I had to use it to stop the bleeding; beside it was covered in blood already."

"Yeah, thanks anyway," I got up then moved to the exit.

"Wait, what happened to you, who shot you?!" Miles yelled back.

I was afraid this would happen, so I made a decision. I knew I could trust Miles with this.

"Well it's like, I am…" I paused, man saying these simple words are a lot harder than it seems.

"You can't tell this to anyone… I'm Sonic the Hedgehog," I said bracing myself for what he would say.

"… Maybe that bullet wound affected your head as well?" Miles asked, with a worried look on his face.

"You'll see soon, by the way, how long was I out for?"

"Well you came at 5:00 PM; you were out for about three hours."

Oh man, if I wasn't dead before I will be now, I thought, paling at the thought of the punishment that waited for me.

"I got to go, thanks again," I yelled, running down the alley.

Although halfway there I had to call a cap, my shoulder hurt too much to run and I didn't want to strain it anymore than needed.

8:23 PM, my house

I stepped into my house; all the lights were turned off, good maybe that means they haven't got back yet. Though my luck just wasn't going good anymore, I was just about to go upstairs when the living room light turned on.

"Where were you?"

I turned to see my Mom and Dad sitting on the couch. The tension in the room started to escalate and I decided to answer with the truth.

"At Miles' house," I said, trying not to show the pain from my shoulder.

"You were supposed to be home three hours ago," my Dad said, cutting me off.

"We were worried about you," My mom glared, "What something happened to you!? What if-."

Now my anger was growing, it could have been because of all the pain, but I couldn't help but lash out at them.

"Like what?! Being kidnapped? That's not going to happen! I'm fifthteen, and I think I should be allowed to stay out above five o'clock!"

Before anyone could say anything I just walked upstairs, tired and sick of being yelled at.

I stepped into my room, locking it behind me, (with me having the only key,) I walked past Tikal, who was still asleep.

I quickly stepped into the shower, hoping it would ease the pain, but all it really did was make it burn more. I needed sleep; I got dressed, grabbed a pillow, a blanket, laid down, and went to sleep.

I stayed in my room for most of the next day; hoping Dart would show up, but he didn't. My shoulder was looking a bit better, though whenever I would move it would burn, so I just sat down watching the news, which was going crazy over me. Channel ten had pictures of me, channel six had a talk with a animal scientist about me, (saying I could be a mutated animal) and the Late Night show made fun of me, (which was funny.)

After my arm heals up I'll hit the streets again, and soon I'll become more famous then, than… Spider-Man! (Who isn't real, which is ironic because neither should Sonic the Hedgehog, but I'll come up with something that makes since soon.)

25 days till present day, High School,

With my shoulder not fully healed I tried to stay unnoticed, a least more then I already do that is. I stepped along the hallway; dodging people trying to get to my locker when I ran into Sora Shimomura, I kept telling myself don't panic.

"Sonic, I've been looking for you," He waved.

However fear won over me and I panicked. "Here take all you want!"

I threw my books, lunch, and a change of my clothes. Sora raised an eyebrow at the change of clothes but gave a small laugh.

"Hey I don't want any of your stuff! I just wanted to say sorry," he said as I was fishing out a pair of sunglasses from my backpack, but then I realized something… these aren't my glasses, this isn't even my backpack!

"Yeah right, well I have to go find my backpack." I said as I turned my back to him.

"Ok, good luck finding your backpack!" He slapped me on my shoulder, the pain running up it; it was like he knew I was shot…

I walk along the school trying to find my backpack, when I gave up and just went to my locker.

"Hey Sonic," I turned to see Maria running up to me. "I found your backpack on the school bus."

"Oh thanks," I sighed, she gave me my backpack then I just put the other one down next to me.

"Where were you for the last couple days?" she asked.

I picked up the books that I needed for the next class and sighed, "My Mom and Dad punished me for not making the five-o'clock curfew."

"What where you doing anyway?" she asked.

"I was… helping Miles play doctor." I replied, turning my face away so she couldn't tell if I was lying.

"Yeah right," she said skeptically, but then she gasped. "Oh Sonic, I found this on your locker."

She reached into her pocket and gave me a piece of paper. I turned it over to read it, 'How's your arm?' My mouth hung low, someone knows who I am? How did they find out?

"Who gave this to you!?" I asked, getting into a panic state.

"I found it on your locker, I didn't read it!" She yelped, backing away from me.

I looked around, as if the mysterious letter sender would pop out at any second, "I'm sorry, it's just…"

"Just what?" She asked, curiosity filled her voice.

"If there some rumor about me going around school, don't believe it," after I said that I walked away from her, scoping the area for anyone that's been following me, other then the normal bullies who are waiting for me to get out of the sights of the teachers.

Everything seemed normal, untill I turned to where there was laughing coming from the entrance; I turned to see someone walking to me, he was similar to the villagers at the ruins! He had jet black hair, dark tan skin, he was wearing blue jeans, and a T-shirt that read, 'I'm a rock star!'

I had a bad feeling about this; I turned to the wall hoping he wouldn't see me. But then again I was never good at being invisible.

"Sonic…" I turned around to see him standing right in front of me, he sighed and grinned. "It's me, Dart."

I frowned, "Yes I thought so… What are you doing here?"

"Seeing if you where alive, I waited at your house for two hours and then I left," He paused at my look of curiosity and sighed, "I had to leave the city for a couple days, after that I went back to your house, where I met your Mom and Dad."

I felt so sick when he said that, "Please don't tell me you told them about me transforming?"

"What? No they thought I was a college student being taught be you," Dart said, looking a little offended, "How the hell can a High School student teach a College student?!"

Technically it wasn't even me; it was Miles. We tried to get some money off of them by having Miles teach them some stuff; it was the dumbest idea in the world. First; they thought we were scamming them and said no to everything, second; no one wants to be taught advanced calculus by an eight year old kid, genius or not.

"What do you need so bad that you had to come into my school for?" I asked, trying to ignore the people whispering behind me.

"Tikal asked you to try to help the world right? Well, I want you to take a look at this," he pulled me to the door to the Teachers Lounge where teachers were watching something with worried faces. "Twenty minutes ago five men broke into a Car Store, but they're not robbing anything; unless you count lives. They're killing and torturing everyone, five men, two women, and a police officer are dead. There are some hostages that are alive, but those men in there and ready to kill more."

The bell rang for lunch, and I sighed, "Looks like I'm missing lunch."

I grabbed my backpack and ran out of the front doors to the school.

I stood on the building across from the car store, a large stand off was going on; police surrounding the building; at least five men holding machine guns, and I could see people lying dead…

"You ready?" asked Dart as he walked up to me.

I nodded; I was already transformed into Sonic the Hedgehog.

"Good, okay listen; you can't just run in there and start beating everyone up. If there are hostages they could be killed and you could be shot," I looked down, kinda hoping he wouldn't see that I was indeed shot, "You have to disarm them, create a distraction and then you strike; taking all their weapons and then you can take them out, but no killing."

"Yeah, I'm ready," I said, I stepped back and ran forward, then I jumped over the heads of the police and onto the top of the car store. I looked around and noticed a ventilation shaft; I ran over and opened it up, quickly jumping into it.

Ok, now all I need to do is find them, I thought. After a minute of crawling through the vents I found them; five men, each with very large guns, a couple hostages, all of them beat up, and I could see some people dead.

Ok, it's time to create a distraction. I cracked open the vent and looked around, that giant balloon on that car, if I can pop that it would make a loud noise, get them alert, and then I can attack from behind.

I plucked a quill from my back, sped over to the balloon, and popped it.

The men raised their guns to the noise, "Do you think the police are making their move yet?"

"No way, not with all the hostages in here!" said the one that must have been in charge.

Then I went for the strike; I swiped their guns from them, then I knocked out three of them by hitting them in the head, or throwing them into something hard. Though the last two were more alert; one pulled out a small gun, while the other grabbed a knife and put it to one of the hostages.

I have to do this one fast or else one of the hostages is going to get killed! I ran at the man with the gun, knocked him back, jumped over the man who had the hostages, and punched his back, (hitting his spine made him fall to his knees).

I turned to the hostage, "Are you ok, did he hurt you?"

"No I'm fine, who are you?" she asked.

"My name is Sonic the Hedgehog!" I replied, just as the police burst in, guns ready.

I smiled at them, ran right past the group, and out the door.

"Yeah ok, saving those people did feel good," I admitted to Dart as I sat down at the school's lunch table.

"And the plan I gave you worked perfectly, now all we need is Tikal to wake up and then we can train you," Dart looked at me and asked, "when you went back to the crash sight did you find a serum that was labeled 'Chaos'? Because that serum is very dangerous, it's like the emeralds, but it speeds up the process."

"Um, yeah I did find it, though I ran to Miles place with it in my jacket…" then reality hit me, "how fast will it speed up the time?"

"It speeds it up so much that it takes less than a week till it takes effect, why?"

"Because I left my jacket at Miles place with the serum in it…" I said, thinking what would happen if Miles touched that thing.

I quickly ate my food and headed out to class, better to get through my lessons and back at home.

When classes where over I didn't think my arm could take much more, though I had to get to Miles' place soon, I was about to out of the school when a loud female voice called my name. I turned to see a girl by the name of Amy, she had long red hair, light skin, brown eyes, she wore a pink T-shirt, blue jeans, pink shoes, she was twelve years old, (in a week she will be thirteen,) and in her class she was very popular, (so why did she hangout with me?)

"Hi Amy, what's up," I asked as I gripped my wound to try to stop the burning pain, (as if that helped.)

"Nothing much, I was just going to walk home," she said as she brushed some of her hair out of her face, "are you going home?"

"Nah, I'm heading to Miles place first, I left something there," I said as we walked down the hall.

"As you know I live right by his house, so I guess where walking together."

It was true; she lives like a couple houses next to Miles' house, we met last year. I met her once when I was visiting Miles, then she turned up in my house talking to my Mom, (there's no way she likes me, she has a boyfriend,) she's also good friends with Cream.

We walked for ten minutes till we reached her house, she said thanks for walking me home then left, I ran a little bit more till I reached his house. I walked up to his porch knocked on the door a couple times, and then it opened to reveal Cream. She had light blond hair, white skin, blue eyes, she was six years old, she wore a simple dress, and always good mannered.

I bent down to my knees, "Hey Cream, is Miles home?"

"Yes he is, would you like to see him?"

I nodded, "Yes please."

She moved out of the way, I walked in but I stopped and turned around to her, "I almost forgot."

I twirled my hand around and out came a white flower from my sleeve, magician style, "Here."

"Thank you Mr. Sonic," she giggled and ran off with the flower and into her room. Yeah that was a cheap magic trick, but it's fun to use and she loves it.

I moved along the hall and into his laboratory, to see Miles sleeping, his head rested on the table. I walked over to his desk, picked up a bunch of books, and then dropped it on the table making a loud thump.

He sat up yelling something like, "Holy son of a shooting star!"

"Miles, do you know where my jacket is?"

He looked at me trying to understand what I just asked; finally he sighed and said "Your jacket is lying on my desk."

He pointed to the other desk in the room; I walked over, looked through it and found the Chaos serum.

"Hey Miles did you take anything from my jacket?" I asked just to be careful.

"No, why?"

"Just asking," Then an awful smell arose, and that smell was me.

"Hey can I use the shower? I don't want to go home smelling like this," I asked while he was putting the jacket and the serum in my backpack.

"Yeah go ahead." I turned to the shower, closed the door then quickly got in the shower. After a few minutes into it I heard the door creak open, and then a large raccoon suddenly leaped over the shower stall and at me, it was clawing at me so much that I fell through the shower curtain. I quickly reached for my backpack, took the Chaos serum out and shoved the raccoon in it.

"Hah! You are Sonic the Hedgehog! I knew if I put that raccoon in the shower with you, it would claw you as if you where a hedgehog!" Miles was standing right above me, (with me still being wrapped in the shower curtain and all.)

"Or could it be because you threw it in the water?!" I yelled, causing Miles to frown.

"Good point, now tell me how it happened?" He asked as he sat on the toilet.

"Yeah sure, after you leave and I get dressed!" Miles quickly exited the room; I unwrapped myself, and then got dressed.

I stepped out of the bathroom then sat down, "I am Sonic the Hedgehog, and I was shot trying to retrieve this Chaos serum, if it wasn't for you I would be dead."

"Can you show me?" Miles asked.

I nodded turned to the bathroom, went in it, then quickly got undressed, and transformed.

"Presenting Sonic the Hedgehog!" I yelled while stepping out of the bathroom, Miles mouth dropped, he couldn't believe it, I mean who could?

"I don't believe it," Miles said in shock.

"Yeah, by the way you can't tell anyone, don't write this in a diary, computer, nothing," I said in a strict tone.

"Yeah I won't."

The next ten minutes we stood there talking until it reached 4:50, then I sped back home, though if I knew what happened next I could have done something to stop it.

Miles had just finished building his school project when he found on the floor the Chaos serum, Sonic must have left this, he thought as he picked up it, he put it down on the table.

"I put it here and tell him tomorrow," he said to himself, though as the young scientist he was curiosity got the best of him, he pulled a chair over and took a small bit of the serum and placed it on a microscope.

"What is this, it's so strange…" He turned to consult a book, he quickly flipped through the pages, and then he felt a sharp pain.

"A paper cut," after Miles said that he looked down, his blood had fallen into the serum, he yelped and he was about to dab it when he paused. He looked over and peered into the microscope.

"No way…" He gasped.

The serum was killing the white blood cells, it looked like it took place of the white blood cells, infecting everything else, the dark red blood soon turned blue. Miles was about to take a better look at it, when two loud voices yelled out from a neighbor's house. Their having another fight, Miles sighed then looked back at the goop, it was growing larger and it was twitching. It was like it was in pain with all the yelling from the neighbors, Miles turned to put the serum back container, though when he looked back it was empty and standing right in front of him was this blue creature a bit bigger than him, it's eyes were yellow and blank, no pupils.

Then a voice spoke in his head, Young boy, you and I will stop all evil. Humans must suffer for the pain and suffering they mercilessly inflict on each other. No matter what it takes.

It walk to Miles holding out it's hand, he was too scared to scream, it touched his face, entering his mouth, eyes, nose, until it was inside him.

Miles fell to the floor and his glasses fell off him, his eyes were bright yellow, he got up looked around, walked to a window and punched it. He looked at the glass that was stuck in his fist as if it was nothing, he took all the glass out of his fist, (without flitching,) stepped out of the window, turned to his neighbor house, then started to step forward to it, with all intentions to 'stop the chaos.'

Man this chapter was hard yet fun to write, anyway please give me advice and comments. Ideas are wanted, flames are not.
